OoRah
The artist formerly known as "Hoo-Rah" cornered me the other day. He sent me a link to a page explaining that "OoRah!" is the traditional Marine battle cry, not "Hoo-Rah".
He was very nice about it, but I still considered changing his nickname to "Hoo-Hah" in retaliation. Then I remembered that he's a former marine and I'm a limp nerd. I considered blogging about the experience, but then I saw in the link he sent that OoRah basically translates to, "Let's kill." I decided to hide under my desk and soil myself instead. Then, somehow, this blog just kinda wrote itself (at least, that's my excuse if he asks).
All that aside, I love the idea of having a professional battle cry. The Army has "Hooah!". The Marines have "OoRah!". Why not the rest of us? Let's make some new traditions, shall we?
